Help! garageband refuses to play the whole song.

why do garageband cut off the end part of my songs when i play them, this has happend to songs i have exported to itunes also. the songs are about four minutes long with twelve tracks, all locked. i am new to both mac and garageband, am i giving garageband a too heavy workload? if so how do i fix this?

Go to the spot where the song stops playing. Is there a purple triangle in the time line at that spot? If so, click and hold on it then drag it to the right as far as you need it to go. (keep in mind that you need a little space after the last region for the reverb, delay, and the like)
Good luck, and welcome to the forum!

TS1362 a few songs that I have purchased dont play the whole song one skips the whole first minute and 2 others stop before the end of the song. how do i fix this/

A few songs that I have purchased on Itunes have stopped working correctly. One skips the whole first minute and two others stop playing long before the end of the songs, how can I fix this without having to buy the song again?

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

IPod doesn't play the whole song

I have a couple of songs that are about 5.5 minutes long. However, whenever I play them on my iPod the songs always end at 5 minutes. I don't have this problem when I play the song on iTunes. The songs were not ripped from a CD, but are mp3 files. Is there any way to fix this?
By the way, I have a 4th generation iPod if that matters.

I maybe can answer.
One reason can be if you didn't update you iPod correctly, that happend to me.
And the other reason can be that you didn't convert your CD's correctly, that have happend me too.
That's what i know, try to update iPod again, if that doesn't work. Then erase your songs from the list and import then again.
It worked for me.

Try deleting the problematic tune (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.

IMovie has frozen up on me. I've tried rebooting and reinstalling the apps- no help. I can play some of the files- but I can't get into the libraries.Even when I can get something to play the whole system crashes after a few minutes. What can I do?

I desperately need your help. I was working on iMovie last night when the thing froze up on me. I've tried rebooting. I've tried reinstalling the apps. No change. I can play some of the files- although I can't tell which ones will play until they magically appear. I can't get into the project library or the event library. The bar that lets me scroll through the clips is gone. Even when I can get something to play the whole system crashes after a couple of minutes and generates a "problem report" that says "iMovie Quit Unexpectedly". This all started when I was adding cutaways- and one clip just would not load. After I tried several times everything froze up. Have you ever heard of something like this? Maybe I pushed a button or somehow changed a setting? Maybe some of the video is corrupt? What do you recommend?
Thanks for any advice you can offer!

I have tried all the above and nothing seems to work. Any other suggestions?

Depending upon what country that you are in have you tried deleting and redownloading it via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes ? If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that song and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

Thanks for this post. It corrected my similar issue. Note that you need to exit from/re-enter iTunes after deleting the song from your Purchased list.

A number of songs I downloaded from the iTunes store are not playing the whole way through.

Some of the songs are only playing for a couple of seconds, them others I have purhased around the same time are playing the whole way through. Is there any way to fix this?

Hey maddielou2,
Thanks for the question. The following article outlines a resolution to your issue:
Songs in iTunes may not play back completely
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4357
Occasionally, if a song purchased from the iTunes Store on a Mac or PC was not downloaded completely, the song may not play back fully. The song may abruptly stop during playback, and iTunes may start playing the next song in your library or playlist.
Resolution
If iTunes in the Cloud is available in your country, try the following steps to resolve the issue:
- Delete the purchased song that is exhibiting the problem from your iTunes library.
- Click on the Purchased link in the iTunes Store to view your previously purchased music.
- Download your previously purchased song from this list.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Hello hmcc44,
You may need to delete the items from your iTunes Library, then redownload them.
